Nature Studio: Meet the Grasslands

Look down and discover our critically endangered native grasslands with therapeutic horticulturalist and artist Emma Lewellyn. This warm and accessible introduction to nature journaling invites people of all ages and abilities to play with scale and notice what so often goes unseen: a rich ecosystem of micro-beauties right beneath our feet, set against the expansive landscapes of Burra.

Together we'll explore the slowscape—a world that invites us to move more mindfully, look more closely, and discover how caring for nature and caring for ourselves are deeply connected.
